Piers Morgan vs Sam Harris On Israel Palestine War And Islam's Impact. Download YouTube 2023-12-21 (236) < Previous Next > Piers Morgan is joined by philosopher and author Sam Harris talking about the ongoing conflict in Gaza between Israel and Palestine. Sam discusses with Piers Morgan how religion and God have played a part in this conflict and could be partly to blame for the escalation. Video Transcription: [Music] well welcome back to unsensed I'm joined Now by Sam Harris one of the world's great thinkers we had an interesting debate last night involving several people one was Mosab Hassan Yousef he's the son of one of the Hamas co-founders who then renounced Hamas and moved away, and you said this about what's going on at the moment in the Israel Gaza War, let's take a listen any person who put the religious identity above the highest interest of humanity I have no respect for this people, the majority of the Muslim people identified with Hamas, supported Hamas, show me how many Muslims out there who condemned Hamas genocide? what was interesting about that is that he was really suggesting that the motivating factor behind that what Hamas did and why people are supporting them in such big numbers in the Muslim Community it's because they're Muslims it's religion driven now you're an atheist but what you think of that, of this idea that it's actually really about religion well I'm going to agree with him I think it's interesting to to note that many of your listeners will doubt my ability to to make the the statements of of A Sort I'm now going to make but they can't doubt that of him right I mean he obviously knows whereof he speaks right you can't play the identity politics game with him and say that you know he doesn't understand the culture he's the wrong skin color he doesn't speak the language etc etc so let's just just let's you know flag that that particular qualm with what I'm going to say, what I'm going to say it should just be obvious to everyone which is that we have a vast number of people in the Muslim Community worldwide not just in the occupied territories or in Gaza who are powerfully deranged by religious symbols and and their religious identity which is to say it is the most important thing to them but but more important even than the deaths of their own children right we're talking about a culture again I'm I'm not talking about just Palestinians I'm talking about the Muslim Community worldwide you know in dozens of countries that has produced a seemingly unending supply of suicide bombers over the last 50 years right where we're talking about societies where phenomenon that should be impossible are simply to be expected I literally like rigging children to to explode just that me think of how deranging that is for an army or a police force or an NGO or anyone to have to imagine that a child isn't simply a child but a child might in fact under certain circumstances be a bomb right I mean that that is the situation we're in we're talking about a society and now now I'm talking about the the Gaza and the West Bank in particular where in their schools they teach six-year-olds the love of martyrdom the literal aspiration to die as a martyr and the hatred of Jews and and many of these schools are un funded right so this is a terrifying situation which the world has simply acquiesced to I mean the world on some level has simply accepted that there is a a different standard held to the Muslim Community right we all understand that you can stage a play making fun of Mormonism on Broadway and it can become the biggest musical in the United States "The Book of Mormon" , but to stage of such a play about Islam would be Unthinkable and to be Unthinkable not because the first amendment doesn't protect the freedom of speech with respect to Islam, it does, but that protection has been forfeited it was forfeited long ago because of the tendency in the Muslim Community to erupt with just Psychopathic rage in response to what it perceives to be the desecration of religious symbols and that should be intolerable to us, but it's you know we have acquiesced to it and the new Norm is there are certain things you can't say about Islam there certain symbols you can't traduce and it's because we know that tens of thousands even hundreds of thousands of people will will March into into the streets even in the capitals of Europe could you make me ask this could you could you flip the argument the other way too could some people would say that the scale the disproportionate as many see it scale of Israel's response is motivated in some part again by a religious motivation that some of the more Hardline Ultra religious members of netanyahu's cabinet really do want to have some kind of genocidal war with the Muslim Palestinians I mean does it work both ways well, it does work both ways when you're talking about a tiny minority of Jews in Israel I mean the the ultra Orthodox the settlers who the minority of settlers who are motivated by their their religious fanaticism yeah I think those those those religious claims upon real estate in the Middle East are are not justified and they aren't in fact part of the problem and so yes this the settlements in the West Bank are certainly provocative and they you know they should be disallowed right if we if we were ever going to get to a two-state solution part of the the the remedy there is to disenfranchise the religious Maniacs on the the Israeli side but as a in terms of the scale of the problem it is orders of magnitude smaller I mean not just for that particular region but for the whole world and we're talking there 15 million Jews on Earth most of them are impressively secular most believe very little that would motivate a person to want to die for their religious identity the real justification yeah I I just on that I would just say I just wonder whether you think that what is going on now in Gaza the kind of obliteration of a lot of Gaza the mass killing of civilians and so on which Israel will justify by saying they're trying to get rid of a terror group I understand the thinking but the execution has been so increasingly indiscriminate that is there not a danger that it actually massively increases the radicalization problem rather than remove it well there two piece to that answer what one is that the the the real problem of radicalization I would say is not connected in any kind of rational way to real world grievances right I mean so the the real problem of radicalization is the level is the level of ideas right ideas around martyrdom and Jihad that easily cross borders and as we saw with the Islamic State uh can easily win recruits from 100 countries I mean so you literally have people who have no discernable grievance against anyone I mean you somebody dropping at a medical school in London going to fight with the Islamic State purely on the power of certain ideas right so that's that's a a larger problem of jihadism and specific religious beliefs that are endemic to Islam and that it is taboo to criticize if you're if you're certainly if you're a Muslim you certainly risk your life and charges with charges of apostasy and blasphemy if you criticize these ideas but specifically with Gaza the the the killing of innocence and Gaza is an absolute tragedy and it's very easy to understand why people seeing that imagery think that um Israel is in the wrong for producing so many casualties but they are fighting a terrorist organization a jihadist organization that is using its own civilian population as human Shields it has strategically embedded itself among civilians, it it wears civilian clothing right it's it it put its headquarters under a hospital it it um prevents civilians from leaving to safer areas because it wants to produce Carnage because Carnage is an advantage in in this PR war against Israel and frankly these people sincerely believe in Paradise they think that good Muslims are going to go to paradise where wherever they die however they die and so there there is in fact no problem with the with this Carnage right and that's that's the thing that is is very difficult for secular people to get their heads around that people actually believe these things when members of Hamas chant we love death more than the Jews love life that is a sincere expression of their worldview right it's not propaganda it's not posturing it is a a a confession of a psychological state of mind and of a worldview and we we doubt that at our Peril right I mean this is this is the issue we're dealing with a suicidal death cult that doesn't care about its own civilian casualties in fact its own civilian casualties are are are an additional advantage for it. Sam Harris, great to talk to you again I really appreciate you coming on and speaking with such clarity about a complex issue thank you very much

What proportion response by Israel actually means? Download YouTube 2023-10-23 (#028) < Previous Next > No electricity, no fuel, no running water, no food going into Gaza, borders with Egypt closed (for which there is little crtiticism), as well as missiles raining down on buildings knowing that there will be civilian casualties. The broadcaster asks whether this a reasonable, proportionate, moral response by Israel. Douglas Murray responds and claims there is a deep perversion in Britain when it come to Israel. Only Britian is obsessed with this. Proportionality and conflict rarely exist,but if it did, retaliation for Hamas' actions should be such: Israel should try to locate a music festival in Gaza and rape the same number of women, kill the same number of young people, find a town the same size as Sderot and kill the same number of babies, shoot in the head the same number of elderly people...proportionality n conflict is a joke and the British concept is that only the Israelis are expected to have a proportionate response after being attacked. The dfference between the Western way of war and that of the Hamas terrorists is that the objective of Hamas is to kill innocent people while that of civilized democracies is to kill as few innocent people as possible. The IDF does everything possible to protect Israeli civilians which Hamas uses its civilians to try to protect Hamas. Israel does its best to limit civilian casualties but afterthe atrocities committed by Hamas, this will change Video Transcription: Coming soon

- US army cannot match Iran’s defense power: Hajizadeh | Tikva International
US army cannot match Iran’s defense power: Hajizadeh 15 February 2024 By: Mehr News TEHRAN, Feb. 15 (MNA) – Commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) Aerospace Force Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh said Thursday that the US Army knows very well that it cannot match the Iranian defense might. Speaking in an exhibition of the Iranian achievement in the aerospace field on Thursday, General Hajizadeh said that the American army is not capable of matching Iran's defense power. He added that the Iranian armed forces have made invisible to radar drones that can carry out reconnaissance missions everywhere. The senior IRGC general further pointed to the great achievement in the defense field by the Iranian armed forces since the Islamic Revolution in 1979 and said "We are among the top powers in the world in the fields of defense, missiles and drones now." He further said that the US’s “terrorist army” clearly admits that it is not seeking a war with the Islamic Republic, because “it knows that it cannot match Iran’s defense power.” <- Previous Read full article Next -> More Insights 7 Ways Hamas Exploits Palestinian Civilians in Gaza Antisemitism defined: Why opposing the Jewish people's right to self-determination is antisemitic What You Need to Know About Israel’s Humanitarian Aid To Gaza Fatah responds to Hamas criticism of new formation of PA government ‘without consulting Hamas’ Surprise jump in Gazan support for 2-state solution, while still in favor of Oct 7 attack Hamas' Most Horrific Weapon of War: 5 Takeaways from UN Report on Sexual Violence Against Israelis Latest Video Clips The History of Israel This Muslim Israeli Woman Is the Future of the Middle East Natasha Hausdorff responds to the content of the House of Commons Gaza Debate.

- Time to separate the Palestinian cause from Hamas cause❗ | Tikva International
Time to separate the Palestinian cause from Hamas cause❗ Download YouTube 2023-10-29 (#056) < Previous Next > Mosab Hassan Yussef is the eldest son of one of the co-founders of Hamas who worked alongside his father during his formative years and was therefore able to get a good insight into Hamas. Mosab tells Pierce Morgan that Hamas has one goal: to annihilate the State of Israel. Hamas does not accept Israel's right to exist. When asked why he left Hamas, Mosab says he always questioned Hamas' brutality and abuse of power. Mosab was imprisoned in Israel for 27 months, and saw Hamas torturing and killing 100s of their own people within the Israeli prisons, and he began to wonder what would happen if Hamas got ruling power, and when that happened many years later, Mosab wasn't surprised at their brutality. Regarding October 7th, he was surprised by the scale of the attack, the wiping out of entire communities, messing with the most powerful country in the region, a nuclear power, a country with the trauma of the Holocaust. Hamas, he says, opened the gates of Hell on the Palestinian people, which just shows how irresponsible they are and how willing they are to sacrifice Palestinian children and use the Palestinian community to achieve their ideological agenda. It is important to make a separation between the Palestinian cause and the sick Hamas cause. Mosab claims Hamas needs to be removed from power. When asked how many of the Gazans support Hamas, Mosab says there will be celebrations and they will thank Israel once Hamas is removed because Gazans are suffering under Hamas' lust for power and political ambitions. He also believes that war is the only way to peace. Israel and the free world have no choice but to fight and put an end to Hamas. The blood of the dead civilians is on the hands of Hamas. Morgan says that pro-Palestinians refute that idea and blame Israel for everything. Mosab replies that people coming from London or elsewhere in the world have no right to tell him what the struggle of the Palestinian children is, saying that Palestinian society has been hjacked by criminals. It's a fact that Hamas uses civilians as human shields and it's a fact that Israel warns civilians to evacuate buildings before it strikes. Israel is a democracy, Israel is accountable, Israel does not seek to kill Palestinians and despite Israel's enormous power, it does not attempt to abuse it. We need to stop blaming Israel for things we invited upon our own heads, he says. All those protesters around the world calling to free Palestine, don't know what Palestine is. Mosab says HE is Palestine and Hamas and its corrupt leadership is killing his people. He doesn't want a Palestinian state! Palestinian children need education, security, life, not another corrupt Arab regime. When asked if the right way to get rid of Hamas is by aerial bombardments, Mosab says Hamas will be got rid of, that Hamas has not only brought the wrath of Israel upon it, but the wrath of God. We will destroy them and bring them to justice and the world will witness their punishment and everyone who takes their side will regret the killing of the Palestinian people.

The world cries out for humanitarian assistance for Gaza civilians, but when Israel wants to know what is happening with its 240 hostages taken by Hamas, the Red Cross is nowhere to be seen.

"Our Islam is the opposite of what they did..." Download YouTube 2023-11-20 (#137) < Previous Next > "On Saturday, October 7th, at 6:30 am, at the Ma'on intersection 🚧, eight motorcycles carrying Hamas terrorists approached Hamid Abu Arar, his wife Fatma, and their baby son, and opened fire on their vehicle. The incredible story of Hamid's heroism in the hours that have passed since then is a tale of solidarity and profound loss, but most importantly, it's a story of destiny and partnership 🤝. Only by working together can we achieve victory! Video Transcription: Maon Junction, Saturday, October 7th, 06:45 AM On Saturday, October 7th, my wife and I, and my youngest son where driving, eight people came and started shooting at us. My wife said to me, Hamid, I don't feel my legs. I asked what leg are you talking about? She was hurt badly. I told her, Fatma, I bear witness that there is no God but God, and I bear witness that Muhammad is the Messenger of God. She passed away. I opened the door, I went to her door, I put down the chair, I closed her eyes, and I opened the door to my son. I took off his clothes. He had nothing but shrapnel in his shoulders. I looked to the side, and I saw a small closed compound, Large electrical cabinet So I went and hid inside and closed the doors, Me and my baby and he was crying. Of course, he wanted to drink milk from his mother. So, after about five hours, four of Hamas' terrorists arrived, and hid behind the cabinet that we were in. Suddenly, I heard Hebrew from the other side. I looked behind the cabinet, and I saw the army. The Hamas terorists on my back. So one of the terorists said, give them six or seven meters to advance, and kill them all. So I said to myself, Hamid, make a quick decision. I grabbed my baby, I opened the door, and I went out to the army. I told them, you are in the fire zone now. If they had advanced another five meters, they all would have been killed on the ground. For sure! I got out by a miracle and we saved the soldiers They brought us water, took care of my child Look at his back, my son. He has shrapnel in his back, poor thing He is OK, he's still a baby. Does he knows who has he killed? A mother to nine children. My oldest is eight and a half years old. I don't know what to do. I just convince myself. I say, I'll get over it, I'll get over it. Every day I go to the cemetery to my wife . I try to think, I try to understand, to analyse. There is no interpretation for this. He killed an observant Muslim mother a mother of four daughters that study the Koran even though he didn't know the Koran. So, what kind of Islam are we talking about? Can you tell me, what kind of Islam we're talking about? Our Islam, my friends, doesn't say that. Our Islam is the opposite of what they did. The Israeli Arabs saw it as well. They saw what Hamas did. We need to make a change. Everyone who lives in this country needs to be one body. Arabs, Jews, we need to be one body. Otherwise, If someone brings us hatred, there's no time for that. Partners in Fate
